What is Strontium hydroxide?

The Biden administration plans to ease sanctions on Venezuelan oil to allow more of the country's crude to reach Europe.  

The U.S. will allow European companies still operating in Venezuela to immediately transfer more oil to the continent, while allowing Chevron to negotiate a resumption of operations in Venezuela, according to people familiar with the matter.  Venezuela's OPPOSITION, which is backed by the United States, is understood to favor the move.  Tight global oil supplies have sent crude and fuel costs soaring, threatening to add to already high inflation.  Increasing Venezuelan crude exports would help ease supply constraints while also helping to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian energy.

The US has sought to encourage talks between the Venezuelan government and the US-backed opposition to open the way to free and fair elections by extending a limited license held by Chevron to allow the oil company to maintain its operations in Venezuela and negotiate future operations.  

The United States reportedly did not extend a permit to Allow Chevron to drill and sell Venezuelan crude, as the company had hoped.  

The license extension will allow Chevron to negotiate with State-run Petroleos de Venezuela SA, with which it has a joint venture.  Previously, the company could not directly negotiate with any officials sanctioned by the United States.  Chevron has been lobbying the United States to allow it to drill for Venezuelan crude and sell it on world markets to help lower energy prices amid the Russia-Ukraine war.

Affected by the ever-changing international situation, the supply and prices of many commodities like the strontium hydroxide are still very uncertain.

What is Strontium hydroxide?
Strontium hydroxide is an inorganic compound. Strontium hydroxide chemical formula is Sr(OH)2. Strontium hydroxide molecular weight is 121.63. Strontium hydroxide is a colorless square system of plate or columnar crystallization. As an important strontium compound, it has a wide range of applications.
 
Strontium hydroxide Properties
Strontium hydroxide is colorless crystal or white powder. Strontium hydroxide density is 1.9g/cm3, Strontium hydroxide melting point is 375C, and the boiling point is 710C (decomposition). It dissolves easily, absorbs carbon dioxide in the air to form carbonate, and loses seven molecules of crystalline water in dry air. Soluble in hot water and acid, also soluble in ammonium chloride solution, soluble in cold water.
Sr belongs to alkaline earth metal, and the solubility of strontium hydroxide in water is between calcium hydroxide and barium hydroxide. Although its solubility is small, it belongs to strong alkali, has the general property of alkali, completely ionizes in water, is corrosive, and its alkalinity is between calcium hydroxide and barium hydroxide. The colorless crystal of strontium hydroxide octahydrate can be precipitated by the action of soluble salts of strontium (strontium chloride, strontium nitrate, etc.) and concentrated sodium hydroxide solution at room temperature.
 
How to produce strontium hydroxide?
The pure strontium oxide is wetted with a theoretical amount of water, that is, it causes a fierce reaction and gives off heat to form white powdered strontium hydroxide. When water is added, strontium hydroxide monohydrate, heptahydrate, and octahydrate are formed.
 
Is strontium hydroxide a base or acid?
Strontium hydroxide is a strong base.
 
What is strontium hydroxide used for?
Strontium hydroxide is widely used in the refining of beet sugar in Europe. It becomes an insoluble disaccharide salt. After separation and refining, when carbon dioxide is injected, the sugar is released and insoluble strontium carbonate is formed.
Strontium hydroxide is also used as a stabilizer for polyethylene plastics.
Strontium hydroxide can be used to improve the dryness of dry oils and paints.
Strontium hydroxide is used to produce strontium lubricating wax and various strontium salts.
 
What is the name for Sr(OH)2?
Strontium hydroxide.
 
Is strontium hydroxide hazardous?
Strontium hydroxide is a serious skin, eye, and respiratory irritant. It is harmful if swallowed.
 
What is the pH of strontium hydroxide?
The pH value of strontium hydroxide saturated solution is 12.94.

Recently, the first press conference of the Boao Forum For Asia Annual Conference 2022 was held. Two flagship reports were released at the conference: "Asia's Economic Prospects and Integration Process 2022" and "Sustainable Asia and the World 2022-Green Transformation in Action in Asia".

The flagship report points out that the global economy will recover in 2021, and the pace of economic integration in the Asia-Pacific has not stopped even in the face of the impact of COVID-19. The Asia-Pacific region has provided new impetus for the world's economic recovery and institutional building.  

The report gives an outlook on the Asian economy, noting that a number of factors will affect Asian economic growth. For example, mutated strains such as Delta and Omicron have become more transmissible, and many economies are experiencing epidemic peaks again. The Ukraine crisis has triggered geopolitical changes in Asia and Europe, leading to higher commodity prices, which may affect the global energy supply and energy transformation.

The report pointed out that the Asian economy will still be in the process of recovery in 2022, but the growth rate may moderate. According to the report, Asia's economic growth in 2022 is likely to be lower than the current IMF forecast, which is projected at 4.8%.

Affected by several factors, the supply of the strontium hydroxide is erratic and thus its prices are expected to go higher in the future.
